The race participation scheme is handled by Stephen Mifsud. Any mistake noticed should be brought to his
attention either by contacting him on mobile (7944 3271) or else via e-mail (stemif@maltanet.net).
As from this year, the Race Participation Scheme for St. Patrick's AC Runners has been updated, mainly with the aim
of making it more appealing, interesting and varied. Please refer to the December 2008 issue of The Shamrock
(page 12). The major introduction as from this year is the inclusion of the Club's League Track & Field Meetings in
the Participation Scheme. To avoid all possible misinterpretations, it is being underlined that this Club League is
composed of the three meetings to be held at the Marsa track on the 8th, 15th and 22nd July 2009. Those athletes
participating in all three meetings of the Club League will benefit from points for the Race Participation Scheme.
